So because I was giggling over something funny it gave me a great Idea for this chapter. So I started it as soon as the last was posted. Which is why they were posted so close to each other. Enjoy and Sprite Loving the Reviews your last one was making me laugh so hard I nearly peed my pants. Ness thanks for your review it made me smile a lot to know I have your Favorite Fic right now..
The next day came and I woke up to a knocking on my door. I slowly climbed from my bed and walked over peaking out seeing the walking mountain Ganon at my door. I opened up and smiled to him. I did not realize it was already past dawn and things needed to get done. I let Ganon in while I got the money I owed him for his work on my coop. I paid in in full before he left and bumbled to the back of my field setting to work.
I fixed myself up and walked around to my few crops and started to harvest what I could and water them for the day. I hummed softly as I was still sore heart-ed from the night before. I kinda just wanted to sit in the grass and keep to myself today cause I know for a fact Julia would be here before lunch. I finished the little work I had and sat on the stoop of my house waiting quietly and almost as if on cue I saw Julia coming up the hill, well sprinting up the hill.
"Hi Julia" I called out half yelling as she got closer to me.
"You have to come now!" She grabbed my arm and pulled hard.
"What? Why? If this has to do with last night no." I pulled my arm back.
"NO, it doesn't But you must come NOW! There are a few new people in town." Julia pulled me up to my feet.
"I really do not want to Julia." I stood as she pulled.
"You are coming now let's go!" she didn't let go as she dragged me from my farm.
We ran out of my farm and down the hill. I was nearly falling down the hill as running down a hill was not something one did normally. She pulled me around the path as we headed to the beach. I saw Natalie, Pierre, Eliot, Denny, a new girl with long blond hair and another with Black, And another person with dirty blondish hair that was behind every one else. They were all standing in a group talking to each other before Julia called out.
"Hey Everyone!" She waved pulling me still as everyone almost as though planned stepped back and turned to look at her.
That was when I saw him. I stopped dead in the sand Julia lost her grip on my arm making her stumble and turn to face me confused. I stood looking to the person with the dirty blond hair as though they were a ghost. They looked back with the same expression before they finally moved stepping closer before they were running. With all my power I willed myself to move and started moving till I was stumbling through the soft sand.
"M...m...Mark,,," I stumbled faster till I was diving at him my arms wrapping around him as he caught me and held me so tightly.
"Chelsea!" He held on so tight his voice cracking. "Chelsea!" He spun us around before he dropped to his knees holding me like I was his lifeline.
"Mark... I thought... I thought you... you died!" I was crying and choking out my words as everyone walked over to us all of them confused.
"What is going on?" Natalie's voice broke the reunion between my brother and I.
"Natalie this is my twin brother, Mark," I spoke so happily.
"Your parents named you both Mark.?" Denny questioned very confused now.
"No they didn't " mark pulled his hat off my head letting my long brownish blonde hair fall down to my mid back while he put the hat back on his head.
"My name is actually Chelsea." I sniffled clearing my eyes of tears. "I was using my brother's name because I thought he was gone."
"You lied to everyone on the island! "Natalie snapped her rage visible on her face.
"I had to lie. I was hiding. I still am." I looked down and frowned.
"We would prefer not to talk about it. Its a personal issue between us." Mark spoke up his face cold as he watched Natalie as she back down nodding. "So how much damage did you do to my name, my darling little sister?"
"Every one thinks your gay and likes boys." I blushed and smiled weakly.
"You are a Jerk." He smiled and stood up.
"We best go around to everyone and let the cat out of the bag shouldn't we." I questioned very calmly as those around us know and are someone understanding now it was just a matter of getting the rest to.
We spent the rest of the day going around town introducing Mark to everyone else and explained a bit of why I was masquerading as a boy. We left out a few details like it that it was my father I was hiding from, and what he was doing. We did not think it was necessary to share to much personal information.
By Dusk we finished and we were heading to Regis's house when we ran in to Sabrina. She greeted us with a smile and stepped closer to us. She seemed really shy but looked to cute, at least in my opinion.
"Mark, are you staying with father and I or will you stay with Chelsea." She blushed deeply as she asked.
"I do not know." Mark hummed a bit as he wasn't thinking that far ahead.
"I have room for you in my house. Would be nice to spend some more time with you. Catch up again. I missed you I thought you were dead." I placed a hand on his arm.
"Are you OK with that?" Mark looked to Sabrina as though he wanted her permission first.
"OK, I will let father know. Please come by tomorrow for lunch." Sabrina smiled and quickly scurried off like a little rabbit.
Mark and I headed back to my house and he marveled at the land I had to work on. He loved that I was fending for myself so well. When we went in to the house he smirked and quickly put me in to a head lock and nuggied me. I cried out before pulling away and punching him in the side.
"My little sister is growing up to quick" Mark smiled happily.
"We are the same age, you Jerk!" I pushed him a bit walking to my bed and pulling off a blanket and pillow tossing it to the couch. "For that you get the couch.."
"Aw, oh well." Mark chuckled and jumped on the couch "So how early are you up?"
"Um five I think maybe a little sooner." I never thought about the time I got up I just got up and did my chores. "We can find out tomorrow when I wake you up and make you work."
We both laughed and relaxed the rest of the day and had dinner before going to bed. The morning came quickly enough and I was pushing Mark off the couch for breakfast. I checked the clock it was about five when I got up. Mark grumbled and got up moving to the bathroom to wash his face and do other things. We both went out and did my chores before moving off to the forest. I gathered berries and herbs while he sat quietly fishing, with more luck them me too. Around noon we went our own ways and then met up for dinner then finished our night the same as before. It was a nice way to carry out the day little did we know that was how our days would be going for a while. It wouldn't be long till fall came.
Fall had finally started and crunch time started we had a ton of work to do to make sure we could feed two people not just one now. We made enough to get my house expanded so we had two bedrooms for our own privacy. Regis offered my brother to stay with him and Sabrina but he didn't want to impose on them when he had family he could stay with even though he would be forced to work every day at dawn. We worked well together like we did on mom's farm. We both went right in sync with each other. Julia watched us and said we did the creepy twin thing that Eliot and his sister didn't and had to leave. It wasn't to much longer after that Mark was paying Regis back for his medical bills. Regis was awesome and wasn't charging interest or anything. Something tells me Sabrina had something to do with that. My brother visited her often and she came to see us just as often.
We have been keeping busy with small chores like chopping wood, watering plants, and harvesting. Through the first few days of the new season. Mark was getting bored and taking lumber to make new furniture and small fixes around the house so we didn't have to bother Ganon. He just finished working on another project while I was stacking wood in to the box to replace what he kept using for his little bored hobbies. He walked over lazily and I waited for what I knew what was coming.
"Chelsea I am hungry" Mark whined as he looked over leaning on the wood rack I was filling
"If you are hungry go make your own food." I crossed my arms shaking my head.
"But I made this awesome bench for your house. And you make food better then me." He grinned at me.
"Fine you win this time Mark" I poked at him.
I smiled to my brother as he sat on a bench in the front of my house. He leaned back and crossed his arms behind his head triumphantly before I shook my head going in side to make us lunch. He know the next time he was gonna have to do lunch. I disappeared in to my house just as Vaughn walked up the path having returned from his few weeks away for delayed work because of the horrible storm we had. I had forgot he was returning to the island that day.
Vaughn Pov
I felt like an ass the entire trip back to the city. Had I not needed to catch the boat I would have went to Chelsea slash Mark's house to apologize. I was never good with being subtle. I was so blunt and to the point that when I tried to be subtle I am easily misunderstood. When I said I liked someone I meant her but as usual I was misunderstood and upset someone. So Two week away from the Island didn't help with the feeling like a Jerk. It only made me more antsy to get back.
I was out at my second job site in Forget-me-not Valley. I didn't sell animals here I only saw to dropping supplies off with some old guy named Tanaka. Today was gonna be the last day because the farm here dried up sadly. When I met with Tanaka we went to the bar for goodbye drinks because I wasn't going to see him for a long while.
"So this s my last time coming here." I sighed. I liked the old guy.
"Yea. You were a good kid, Vaughn." Tanaka nodded and raised his glass. "Well where you going to after this?"
"My next stop is flower bud to pick up orders then I head back to base to put the orders in, then off to the new Islands." I smiled softly.
"A smile I have not see you do that!" A woman by the name of Muffy chirped.
"You see m happy to go there" The old man smiled.
"Yea there is a girl I like there. She is short, but has a big spirit. She was on that boat that sank a few seasons back." I frowned as I remembered her story. "She is strong and one hell of a farmer. I need an going to bring her a new chick for her coop she just finished.
"She is planning animals. Already?" Tanaka was surprised.
"Yea she is really quick and working hard. I figured I will give her a chicken and see how well she can do before I let her buy more." Vaughn nodded as the chicken was a matter of testing her skills not a gift cause he screwed up.
"Well she seems like a nice girl." Tanaka smiled softly
"Yea." I smiled in to my drink. Little did I know some one else besides Tanaka and Muffy were listening to me and little did I know I made a huge mistake.
That night I hopped on the boat and left the Valley heading to my last few stops before going back to the Islands. I got to the Islands around nine in the morning a little later then I had planned but the water was rough.. I walked to the ranch to drop my things off in my room and did everything within my power to avoid Julia till after I spoke to Chelsea.
I left the ranch and walked up the path heading up the hill to Chelsea's farm. I saw her sitting on a new bench looking around. I always thought she looked cute when she let herself daze off. It relaxed her features and made her inner beauty come out. I got closer and cleared the stone from my throat and let myself call out to her. I needed to show her I meant her and I liked her. I hate romance and sappy things it was really not my thing. Maybe I should do what those guys do in to movies Julia has made me watch.
"Chelsea." I walked up quickly as she turned on the the small bench to see who was calling her.. I grabbed and put to either side of her head and kissed her very abruptly on the lips. Very out of character for me but blunt was how I was as well. I think girls like this cause Julia watched many movies where the guys very forward. I hope this makes her understand that the night of the fireworks I was talking about her and no one else. I also pray she forgives me too.
